One of the famous food in Melacca is the pineapple tart. Basically we can see the pineapple everywhere when you strolling along Melacca especially at Jonker Street. We found this shop by chance, and their pineapple tart is marvellous! And the durian puff, is a must try stuff! It is so fresh that you couldn't resist the 2nd puff! Be careful when you eat it ok, the durian filling might spit out! :p

This is the one, Poh Keong Enterprise. Same row with Jonker 88, I guess just 1 - 2 shops distance. They also sell some other biscuits but we just love the pineapple tart :) Ermm.. wonder why their signboard missing the G?

RM5 六个，我说过会替它打广告的！哈哈。。。6 for RM5, I promised with advertised for them after tasting it! :P

饼皮松软又不呛喉，带那么一点点咸味，凤梨不甜，很好吃哦，不会腻！Hmnm...yummy yummy, the crust is soft and taste slightly salty, the pineapple is not sweet at all... taste just right!

and also salute the the way the youngster write their blog, so much creative and aggresive! Tons of followers and some even with awards! Most of them are even earning money! Wow... those day, I was just able to take most guli job... kesian...

Last time, I didn't even know how to use msn, friend help to registered yahoo chat, donno what is login ID, user name etc etc... Even now, I am still blur on some blog features... haha... must read and learn from other bloggers (and seriously, majority of them are just so young! still studying, can you believe??) No wonder nowadays parents can't wait to send the kids to school, give them the most modern stuff, and have much exposure to many things as possible... seriously not easy eh?

But then I still feel very blessed that for once I was running on the abandone train track with friends, watching the real corn at the farm while on the way to my tuition class, digging the earthworm and flying kites in front of my house, catching the fish inside the drain... and living in a house that has leakage and flood during heavy rain... coz, all these, the modern citizen might already not able to experience anymore (of course they also might NOT want it ok.. ), but still, I think it is really something that worth memorize and is special...

Well, at least I can still learn tho I am not so young...hehe...don't wanna compete with others but definitely rooms to improve!

Errrm... thanks to those blogger who allowed me to learn & download new widget (which they didn't even know :P), hehe... I'll try keep up!做莫无端端放这照片？放爽而已，告诉自己其实我还不是太烂的，最低限度会利用网络弄些得意的照片之类的东西。。。呵呵。。。Why suddenly this photo??? Hahaha... nothing nothing, just to show that I also know how to make use of internet to make such photo for freeeeeee :P No in fact, I am a 'visual' person, no photo/picture I couldn't really digest... so this is for me to digest my own post... hahhaa

Yeah... this is the super laksa shop that I so wanted to bring mum to try, to me it really taste good! Just located in Jonker Street, next to the new public toilet. Shop itself is not huge, so normally gotto wait a while and hunt for the seats...but it really worth the wait!

左边卖cendol, 右边卖laksa, 可以由两人分头行事，这样就可以吃喝一起咯。

Left for cendol right for laksa, can get 2 persons ordered seperately, then can enjoy the food & drinks together :P

自己来的，不过安第的手脚很快哦！

Yeap, self service! They call Asam Laksa as Nyonya Laksa, Curry Laksa as Baba Laksa (so dont get confuse as if you're ordering wrong laksa if they repeat the order in such way...)

内观，吃的同时可以欣赏墙上作品和以前的建筑。。。

Interior look, can enjoy the art work and feel the old building having our delicious foods...

有机会当然要试一试啊！佩服他们的智慧，武器轻盈，很容易操纵。。。FOC one of course must tried! It's quite easy to handle (but aimingwise is another story...)

鸵鸟们。。。

Turkeys turkeys...

葡萄园哦，结了些小小的葡萄。。。Grape farm! You can try to spot the small little grapes...

澳洲的椰子蟹

Next to the grape farm is this Robber Crab!

可能是太热了吧，全都躲在石洞里。。。Probably too hot...all hiding inside...

总的来说，是个蛮适合家庭出游的地方，不过略嫌入门票贵了点，不会去第二次咯，除非入门票有折扣。。。

To conclude, its quite a nice place for family trip, but just that the entrance fees is a bit high up. Giving a choice I won't visit the second time unless there is discount for the entrance fees lo. :)

Finally managed to drag mum out! Been hearing this D-Paradise for long but didn't really got chance to visit until today. Mnm... it was not as good as what the website described, lacking of sign board in the farm and the maintenance was not so worth the entrance tickets. Charging people RM49.90 I guess the tourist will expect a lot more... Yet, we still pretty enjoyed especially when we picked the rambutan and passion fruits :P and also the native performance was cool!

P.S. would suggest to rent the buggy instead of bicycle especially when there is kid/old folk, coz the bicycle do not have gear, and the break also not really working =='入口 Entrance

让小孩嬉戏的草地 Playground for the kids

呵呵，他们的脚车是名符其实的‘上山没力，下山没笔力’Their bicycles' are typical 'Uphill no energy, Downhill no break'....

老妈依然宝刀未老

Mum still fit fit...

阿德琳痛苦的开始。。。Adeline's nightmare begin... hahaha...

龙少拭目以待Awaiting to see what's lying ahead...

这百香果道很舒服。。。也是全场最棒的脚车道。。。

This passion fruit path is very nice...also the best riding path! hahaha

猪笼草 Monkey Cup

这。。。七月十四时拿来拜街边的。。。叫黄什么的...不记得了。。。Mnm... people used to use this for the prayer along the street during July ghost festival...

Sorry, guess am getting heat stroke soon... hehe... thanks to the Roxy that opposite our office that still in business... we gotto hang out there for a while for two jugs of cold cold beer before heading home!

Of course you don't, bcos I want white colour and my dearly friend get a black for me.

No no no no no!

So I rejected (request to change lah), so, gotto wait again :(

See, that's the problem of ASSUME. She assumed white is easily get dirty so she assumed I want black. Sigh... I want white, I like white, and I ordered white!

So please, don't simply assume, it could be dangerous. Try to verify next time, with the technology we have nowaday, it wouldn't be a problem at all.

Well anyway, thought I gotto admit I am very dissappointed (also at the same time my existing phone is really malfunctioning!!!!), but, at least I gotto meet up with my old old friends, had a good dinner and good chatting.

A year ago I bumped into 2 New Yorker – friend’s friends, 2 young lady, one of them is an ABC.

First impression was – I don’t really like them. I was trying to be friendly since we were temporary staying under one roof (but knowing me, my friendly level to stranger was just hi, smile, nod nod my head and bye), but err… somehow I think they just don’t really give a damn, and pretty much self centered.

So I thought maybe it’s just me who had bias or stereotype towards them.

So I still try to be friendly, at least, not showing my long papaya face.

And there was a day, we all went out for a walk and tea.

These 2 ladies was talking and walking so fast, and were very proud of being able to walk fast, passing by all people in front of them, sniff at those ‘slow’ walker, wondering why people wanna walk so SLOW that they referring to as - wasting time.

So I wonder – why? What is it that they are so proud of? Especially when I was in a holiday, the hell I wanna walk so fast!

For once I also able to walk very fast what, but then one find day I asked myself why? If I am not late for appointment or work, why should I walk so fast that I didn’t even know what is the surrounding like? I miss the small flowers that probably saying good morning to me, I miss the trees that probably saying hi to me, so… why not I walk at a normal pace and say hi back?

At the end I noticed that, they are not even just proud of being able to walk fast, they are, generally proud of being a New Yorker.

I couldn’t understand and I asked few friends who studied and stayed in American before – why are New Yorker so proud of themselves?

Answer:
Oh because they have everything mah (as in all kind of foods, facilities, fashion, job etc etc, they are in a modern city, they are somehow in a higher class)

Me: boh, we also have all kind of foods what, we also got modern building what, we EVEN got our precious tropical rain forest! SO what???

I, especially dislike when they said this ‘Ewww…’ (with the super high tone).

Oh my God just kill me!

And they don’t even have a sense of courtesy – they don’t freaking care if you wanna use the stove when they are cooking and conquering 2 stove (where there are 4 actually) and see you holding a pot on your hand. @#$%^&^%$#@#$%^&*

Of course, the above is just based on the observation on 2 population, which IT TOTALLY DIDN’T represent whole New Yorker (coz I still believe not ALL is like that), and is just totally my personal experience.

And why this post is not bilingual?

Because I stronger believe that, all my friends, may it be Taiwanese or Malaysian or from wherever it is, THEY WILL understand.
